Hi,
Recently had a new boiler fitted, old pipes were boxed in and looked okay but new boiler is physically larger and with the pipes in a different arrangement, so the old boxing had to be removed and now looks ugly as heck.
There was simply a couple of battens screwed to the wall either side with the boxing then screwed to the battens and a couple of holes drilled out so you could connect the filling loop.
The new boiler doesn't seem to have a bottom to it? and it sticks out quite a bit more than the previous one. The filling loop is built in and is at the bottom of the boiler, you can see the blue and black bits on the pipes.
How would I go about boxing these pipes in again please?
The material that was used for the old boxing seems to be similar to what the kitchen unit carcasses are made of; where could I get some of this from? It also had some edging on it where it had been cut along the sides.
Here are a couple of pictures;
